Antique Japanese Fabric Bundle - Spot

Gorgeous antique Japanese fabric bundle. 

Seven pieces of unique handmade fabric in various cut sizes.

It has taken 4 wonderful trips to beautiful Japan for Mr and Mrs Kim to build up this interesting and very rare collection of Antique Japanese fabrics. They were all handmade on traditional looms, 30-40cm wide. Mostly during the Edo and Meijii period , around 1850 -1910.

The indigo printed linen and cotton fabrics are from reclaimed bedcovers which have been patched and mended over many years in the typical "boro" style. The courser "gauze like" fabrics are also hand woven, hemp or ramie natural fibres which were often used around the home as window dressing/scroll hanging or summer jackets.

We hand selected all these fabrics for their handworn patina and softness which gives each piece a uniqueness which cannot be replicated in modern fabric. Each curated roll is perfect for small projects, fabric collage, quilting or slow stitching.

Please enjoy using these rare pieces of Japanese history!

Approx size: 93 x 44 cm² (total of fabric pieces laid flat)
